Congratulations to our 4th XI for claiming victory over Heaton Mersey to win the title and promotion!
A well fought season for the lads has paid off.๐
Well done to all involved! Enjoy the celebrations โค๏ธ
Delighted to share the news that Womens 1st XI player, Liv Bell, has been selected in the North West Thunder Academy for the coming year. As one of only 8 programmes nationally, its a great opportunity and on behalf of the club, we wish her well! Well done Liv!
Its game on. Massive shout out to all those who have pushed for common sense. Especially
@MichaelVaughan
@BumbleCricket
backing grassroots all the way. Big thank you to you from all our boys, girls, mens and womens teams who can't wait to get out there. ๐๐๐๐๐๐
It is great sadness that we must announce the sudden death of one of our much loved players,ย Rizwan Jameel.
Rizwan died suddenly last Friday on his 38th birthday. The results of a Post Mortem are awaited.
History was also made on Sunday as Liv Bell became the first female to represent the 3rd XI (as far as we know anyway!)
She also took 2 crucial wickets! ๐๐๐
This is very raw news for the club and I will update as we learn more but I'm sure the club will want to place a permanent memorial of some form at the ground in due course.
RIP Rizwan Jameel.
Friend, Georgian, Cricketer. 29/1/1983-29/1/2021

We are delighted to announce the signing of Aussie left armer Alex Jones for 2022.
He joins the growing list of players to make the journey from Oakleigh CC;
213 wickets for the 1st XI at an impressive average of 15.8.
We look forward to welcoming Alex and partner Bridget!
Brilliant memories of a wonderful day! We love our club and our local community โค๏ธ๐
Massive thanks once again to the team at
@Feralfilms

Emotional moment of Rembrance this morning for Rizwan, a well loved and popular team-mate, friend, cricketer and Georgian. Taken too soon on 29th January 2021. Our thoughts continue to be with his family and his team-mates. Thanks to
@karenlbailey24
for the collage.
Wonderful achievement to all involved! Special thanks to all those who have played for the club in the early days up until now. Its been a exciting journey so far and even more exciting times ahead!

What a weekend for Josh Hawkins!
After his 3 wickets for the 2s, he then made career best performances of 34 from 15 balls and 6-37 as the 3s overcame Hyde by 22 runs.
Well done Hawkeye!

The U18s are in the South Manchester JCL Cup Final! They beat Didsbury last night by 29 runs with Ben Duckworth (32) and Carlos Wakefield (31) key to our 138-5, skipper Max Nicholson leading in fine style with a spell of 3-9.
Well done team, the final is on Bank Holiday Monday.
When was the last time we had two 1st team centurions in one innings?We consulted our archive team (well, Trevor and Ben) and we reckon it was Mark Vincent and Adam Gaskarth back in the old Manchester Association days!
Well done Ned and Jordan!
The 1s capped off a memorable season on Saturday by beating Port Sunlight.
Simon Normanton's 93, Franny Yates' 52 and Jordan Richards' 40 helped us post 293-7 before Max Bailey with four for and Alex Jones with three sealed our 15th win.
A brilliant finish to a brilliant year!
A magnificent day for young home-grown talent in the 4ths
Aidan Francis made a brilliant maiden ton, putting on 165 with skipper Max Nicholson.
Spinner Kabir Kohli took his 3rd five wicket haul of the season as we finished with a comprehensive 145 run win.
Well done lads!
Poignant day today, first time weโve played
@sgeorgianscc
since the sad passing of Rizwan Jameel, we had many a good tussle.
We will start the game with a minutes applause and our lads are donating their match fees to a charity of Georgians choice.

The club will wear black armbands today in respect of Rob McCarthy from our Melbourne sister club Oakleigh CC. Rob very sadly took his own life last weekend.
Our heartfelt sympathies go to his friends, family and team-mates.
On a day of incredible chases, the 2s have memorably chased down 207 in tonight's T20 at Hyde with 3 balls to spare!
Congratulations to Chris Dodd on his maiden unbeaten ton for the club, 110 from just 58 balls, with Fahad Bashir making an important 69!
Well done Liv! And congrats to captain

Relieved Dads Damian Wall and Gerald Bailey after their son's last wicket partnership sealed the two's 1 wicket win on Saturday!
2s debutant Jonah Wall is 16 years old and Trevor Bailey. . Slightly older!
Has there ever been a larger age gap between two of our batsmen?
YES!!!!! The 1s win a titanic tussle by the grand margin of 6 runs to claim our first win of the season.
172 all out off 38.3 overs (Keene 48, Yates 37, Dodd 26)
Tattenhall 166 off 60.1 (Ormerod 3-32, Richards 4-36)
We're up and running!
They've done it! The 1st XI are champions with a game to spare after winning by 5 wickets at Romiley.
We bowled out the home side for 100 with James Locke taking 4-25 and Alex Jones 3-27.
Well done to everyone involved as we finally get over the line!
Advance party of 70 Georgians heading to Old Trafford for the Lightning game!! Our annual trip for our girls and womens cricket players and families.

Another masterclass of swing bowling from Alex Jones (7-14) helped bowl Upton out for 57 today!
Ned Bailey's unbeaten 46 from 33 helped the 1s win in double quick time by nine wickets.
Drama at Heaton Mersey in the T20 as the 2s reached the target of 138 to win off the very last ball! Juniors Ameya Joshi and Max Davies held their nerve making the 8 required off the last over, the chase set up brilliantly by Fahad Bashir's half-century.
Onto the Quarter-Finals!
Great win for the 1s last night with Ned Bailey very much the stand-out performer ๐๐๐

1s complete their third win of the season. 50s for Ned Bailey (his first for the 1s), and Hayden Bailey (not his first) took us to 191-7 declared before wickets for James Locke 5-33 and Simon Normanton 3-39 saw us to an 82 run win.

A terrific game of Cheshire Cup cricket yesterday as the 1s tied with Premier League
@OxtonCC
; both teams making 202 before we eventually fell short in the Super Over.
Best of luck to the victors for the rest of the competition.
Great day for the 1s with Ben Jones making his maiden Georgians ton! Simon Normanton made 50, Oliver Ormerod 30 and George Hardman took 6 for as we closed out a comfortable win.
It's 2 from 2 as Georgians skittle their hosts for 56! Chris Dodd, James Locke and Saul Ashton all take three wickets to seal the win with nine overs left.

Very proud day today as we field 2 Womens teams at the same time league game for the first time in our short history.
Couple of nostalgic pics - 6 members of our orginal league winning womens team are playing today.. & there are 4 of the Marple U11s Festival winners playing too!
Oliver Ormerod and Jon Keogh made their
@OakleighCC
debuts for the 3rd XI this weekend.
Jon made 13 and effected a run out, whilst Oli took 2-16 and a catch in a 42 run win.
50 point Sunday as the 4ths won by 28 runs. 13 year old Sean Duckworth top scoring with 45*, backed by 38 from Ewen Phillis and 28 from James Maher.
Another 13 year old, Luke Woodcock took his first senior wicket, with Ned Bell the best bowler with 3-15.
1s with a stunning comeback victory! Nick Johnson 53, Simon Normanton 43 as we posted 173-9, Cheadle Hulme from 133-3 to 158 all out with eight balls remaining, James Locke 5-43!
Jordan Richards (42*) and James Locke (24*) did it again, putting on 56 as we chased Mobberley's stiff 234 target with three wickets and a ball to spare!
Earlier, Dan Box (55) and Ned Bailey (73) put on 113 for the 2nd wicket to set up the chase beautifully.
A memorable game!
After a heavy defeat to Bowdon on Tuesday, the U18s recovered to win by one wicket in a thriller at Lindow, with siblings Liv and Ned Bell at the crease at the end!
Surely the first brother-sister combo to take a Georgians team to victory?

Also, Francis Yates is due to make his
@OakleighCC
1st XI debut down under next weekend.
Good luck Fran!
Possibly a record breaking day for the 1s (if we could be bothered to check!) as we posted 306-4 in our win vs Barrow.
Francis Yates made a monumental 137* with Dan Box 59, Simon Normanton 46.
Norms took 4-15 with Ben Duckworth taking 2, and a maiden 1s wicket for Josh Hawkins.
We are delighted to announce that Leicestershire captain, and former Lancs player,
